Stunning 1973 Pontiac Trans AM. All original car that was treated to a high end rotisserie restoration that started in 2005. The car has competed in many car shows and received a second place silver in its class(stock restored muscle cars 1967-1975) at the nationally recognized Keels and Wheels Concours event in Texas in 2009. The winning car was a just completed Hemi powered Superbird...hard to beat! This car comes with complete owner history including a title dated 1978 showing the cars mileage at 63400 miles. The car was restored by a retired bodyman who searched high and low for a Trans Am that still retained all of its original drivetrain. He then went about a complete mechanical and body restoration using NOS parts where necessary including body panels. I have pictures of the restoration. Again, this car is stock with the exception of a slightly higher performance cam and a beautifully done magnaflow exhaust system. The restoration is holding up very well, but I recently noted that the front nose, where it meets the middle of the hood, has some paint checking starting to appear...a common issue with the endura nose( see pictures). Other than that, the paint is incredible and the car has no other paint flaws. The chassis is highly detailed including inspection tags and correct red oxide paint. Mechanically the car performs well and has a lot of power thanks to the slighly hotter than stock cam installed when car was restored. I think the '73 is the best looking of the early 70's Trans Am and this car is stunning in Cameo white with the blue Firebird on the hood and deluxe burgandy interior. Car is highly optioned as shown in the included PHS docs including tinted glass, power windows, rear defrost, a/c, console, factory 8 tape player, am/fm stereo, and the custom trim group. The ram air does work on this car though the sticker says delete and credited original buyer $27! This car was delivered new to Ed Schmidt Pontiac in Toledo Ohio. I am the fifth owner of this stunning car and have had this car in my collection since 2006. I am now focusing on C1 and 2 Corvettes ... C1 and C2 Top Flight trades considered. If you are looking for a quality, restored, stock Trans Am your search has ended. Glad to answer any questions from interested buyers. NO SCAMMERS, NO TIRE KICKERS PLEASE>

GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall
Wed, 09 Apr 2014General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.
eBay Find of the Day: 1967 Pontiac GTO Monkeemobile
Sun, 29 Apr 2012Say what you will about The Monkees, but the guys in the band had great taste in automobiles. Take the Monkeemobile, for example. Built off a 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible, the custom featured genuinely interesting bodywork and some wild engine bolt-ons. If you're a fan of 1960s pop and yearn to relive the genre's glory days, eBay Motors may have what you need. A recreation of the 1967 Monkeemobile has showed up for auction. This particular replica was built by Dakota County Customs using an four-speed GTO, just like the original.
Built for the band's 45th anniversary and the final Monkees tour last year, this Monkeemobile is faithful down to every last detail. Unfortunately, the trumpet exhaust poking out of the front fender wells and the massive gold-flake blower are for show only. Seems fitting.
If you like what you see, this machine is up for bid in Richfield, Minnesota with two days left on the auctions. So far, bidding as whipped up to $60,000 with the reserve not met. Head over to eBay Motors to have a look.
Tony Stewart to star in Smoke Is The Bandit web series
Mon, 10 Mar 2014NASCAR driver Tony Stewart is making good use of his nickname Smoke in new videos inspired by the 1970s classic Smokey and the Bandit. The original is one of the quintessential automotive movies of its era with a fantastic combination of slapstick comedy and great car stunts in a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. If you've never seen it, check it out immediately.
In the new six-part Smoke IS the Bandit web series, Stewart takes on the role of Burt Reynolds' famous character complete with huge mustache. But instead of trying to smuggle cases of Coors beer it's Mobil 1 oil. The series promises to recreate many of the famous scenes from the movie and includes cameos from other NASCAR drivers.
To complete the look, future videos just need a quality replacement for a young Sally Field to ride shotgun. It would also be really cool if Reynolds could make a brief appearance at some point. Scroll down to check out the trailer and the first episode in the series.
